Oxide MeOyThe carbon material doped in the layer is beneficial to forming a lithium ion conductor after lithium is embedded in the first charge-discharge process, and is beneficial to realizing the conduction of ions. In addition, the oxide MeOyThe doping of the layer with a certain amount of carbon may enhance the conductivity of the negative active material.
Fig. 3 shows an X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the negative active material of example 12 of the present application. As can be seen from FIG. 3, the anode active material has a maximum intensity value I in the range of about 28.0 to 29.0 in terms of 2 θ in the X-ray diffraction pattern2The highest intensity value is assigned to I in the range of about 20.5 DEG to 21.5 DEG1Wherein is about 0<I2/I1Less than or equal to about 1. I is2/I1The magnitude of the number reflects the degree to which the material is affected by disproportionation. I is2/I1The larger the value, the larger the size of the nano silicon crystal grains inside the negative electrode active material. When I is2/I1When the value is more than 1, the negative electrode active material may cause a sharp increase in stress in a local region during lithium intercalation, thereby causing structural deterioration of the negative electrode active material during cycling. In addition, the ability of the grain boundaries to diffuse during ion diffusion can be affected by the creation of nanocrystalline distributions. The inventor of the present application finds that when I2/I1The value satisfies about 0<I2/I1When the content is less than or equal to about 1, the negative electrode active material has good cycle performance, and the lithium ion battery prepared from the negative electrode active material has good expansion resistance.

Fig. 5 is a volume-based particle size distribution curve of the negative electrode active material of example 16. It can be seen from fig. 5 that the particle size distribution of the negative active material particles of example 16 is relatively uniform and the distribution is relatively narrow. The lithium ion battery prepared from the negative active material of example 16 exhibited more satisfactory cycle characteristics and anti-swelling properties.
Fig. 6 is a volume-based particle size distribution curve of the negative electrode active material of comparative example 6. It can be seen from fig. 6 that the negative active material of comparative example 6 has a certain number of small particles and thus has poor cycle performance. The presence of small fine particles accelerates the etching of the particles by the electrolyte and thus accelerates deterioration of cycle performance. On the other hand, since the small particles are rapidly etched by the electrolyte, a large amount of by-products are generated on the surface thereof, and thus the anti-swelling property of the lithium ion battery prepared therefrom is inferior to that of the lithium ion battery prepared from the negative active material of example 16.
